Situation of storing and treatment of accumulated water including highly concentrated radioactive materials at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (26th Release)
On June 9, 2011, we received an instruction document*, "Installment of 
treatment facility and storing facility of water including highly 
concentrated radioactive materials at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power 
Station (Instruction)" from Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency (NISA) of 
Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.
                                     (Previously announced on June 9, 2011)

Based on the instruction, we have been treating the accumulated water 
containing highly concentrated radioactive materials in the Centralized 
Radiation Waste Treatment Facility. We would like to announce that we have 
summarized the latest situation of storing and treatment of accumulated 
water containing highly concentrated radioactive materials, and reported it 
to NISA today.

                                                                        END

* Installment of treatment facility and storing facility of water 
   including highly concentrated radioactive materials at Fukushima Daiichi 
   Nuclear Power Station (Instruction) (NISA No. 6, June 8, 2011)

We have provided a Japanese press release version of the instruction 
document received from NISA. However, at this time we have reserved the 
right to not provide an English version due to potential misunderstandings 
that may arise from an inaccurate rendering of the original Japanese text. 
We may provide the English translation that NISA releases in our press 
releases. However, in principle we would advise you to visit the NISA 
website for timely and accurate information.

Situation of storing and treatment of the contaminated water in the Power 
Station and future forecast based upon the current situation have to be 
reported to NISA as soon as the treatment facility starts its operation. 
Also, subsequently, continued report has to be submitted to NISA once in a 
week until the treatment of the accumulated water in the Centralized 
Radiation Waste Treatment Facility is completed.
